Four new videos to guide your approach
To make it even easier to understand the program and get the most out of your RISE funds, we’ve created four videos to take you from novice to expert. Each video covers key aspects of the program, such as program basics, how funding works, eligible expenses, and how to maximize your reimbursement opportunities.
Additional videos are on the way! Be on the lookout for videos about using your RISE funds for billboards, radio, print, and other marketing tactics.
Clear guidelines for RISE eligibility
Understanding what qualifies for RISE reimbursement is essential to getting the program’s full value. Documents outlining the eligibility requirements for RISE eligible expenses, including social media usage and co-branded apparel, have been added to Cenex Hub. These guidelines also outline initiatives that fall outside of program eligibility to educate around the Cenex brand standards. With this emphasis on clearer direction, you can focus on initiatives that drive results while ensuring alignment with program requirements.
